Navigation/Radio System
Your vehicle may have a navigation radio system.
The navigation system has built-in features
intended to minimize driver distraction. Technology
alone, no matter how advanced, can never
replace your own judgment. See the Navigation
System manual for some tips to help you
reduce distractions while driving.
Rear Seat Entertainment System
Your vehicle may have a DVD Rear Seat
Entertainment (RSE) system. The RSE system
works with the vehicle’s audio system. The
DVD player is part of the front radio. The RSE
system includes a radio with a DVD player, a video
display screen, audio/video jacks, two wireless
headphones, and a remote control. SeeRadio with
CD and DVD on page 270for more information
on the vehicle’s audio/DVD system.
Driver Control of the Audio System
The driver has basic control of the whole audio
system. If the driver decides to globally turn
the audio system off, the driver can press and
hold the power knob for more than two seconds
to turn off the radio, RSE (rear seat entertainment),
and the RSA (rear seat audio). SeeRadio with
CD and DVD on page 270for more information.
If your vehicle has the navigation system, see the
Navigation System manual for more information.
Before You Drive
The RSE is designed for rear seat passengers
only. The driver cannot safely view the video
screen while driving and should not try to do so.
In severe or extreme weather conditions the
RSE system may or may not work until the
temperature is within the operating range.
The operating range for the RSE system is
above−4°F (−20°C) or below 140°F (60°C).
If the temperature of your vehicle is outside of
this range, heat or cool the vehicle until the
temperature is within the operating range of
the RSE system.
302

Headphones
The RSE includes two 2-channel wireless
headphones that are dedicated to this system.
These headphones are used to listen to media
such as CDs, DVDs, MP3s, DVDAs, radio, or any
auxiliary source connected to the auxiliary input
jack, if your vehicle has this feature or A/V
jacks. The wireless headphones have a power
On/Off button, channel selector switch (1 or 2),
and a volume control.If your vehicle has a third row video screen
display, it will have two additional headphones.
Push the power button to turn on the headphones.
An indicator light located on the headphones
will come on. If the light does not come on, the
batteries may need to be replaced. See “Battery
Replacement” later in this section for more
information. Switch the headphones to Off when
not in use. Channel 1 is dedicated to the video
screen, while Channel 2 is dedicated to RSA
selections.
The infrared transmitters are located at the rear of
the RSE overhead console. The headphones will
shut off automatically to save the battery power if
the RSE system and the RSA are shut off or if the
headphones are out of range of the transmitters for
more than 3 minutes. If you move too far forward or
step out of the vehicle, the headphones will lose the
audio signal.
The headphones will automatically turn off after
four hours of continuous use.
To adjust the volume on the headphones, use the
volume control located on the right side.
